On what basis do you make these claims?  I understand that at one point
in time email from Theo was filtered out simply because he was spamming
mailing lists and *abusing* FreeBSD resources, but claiming that there
is intent to filter all IP packets from the OpenBSD sites is a pretty
strong word, and I'd like to see what factual basis you are using to
even imply such a time.
